29 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
30 | KOI8-R is the character set of choice for encoding Russian texts for | |
008f1ecc | 31 | many UNIX-like operation systems. |
c13182ef | 32 | KOI8-R is a successor for KOI-8, a |
fea681da MK |
33 | de-facto standard for Internet Mail, News, WWW and other interactive |
34 | services at least all over the ex-SU territory. | |

331da7c3 | 36 | KOI8-R is defined by RFC\ 1489 (Registration of a Cyrillic Character |
fea681da | 37 | Set). |
19c98696 | 38 | .SH NOTES |
fea681da | 39 | KOI8-R was designed for mixed Russian/English texts and covers |
a96d136b MK |
40 | only Russian Cyrillic characters, |
41 | so if you're looking for Cyrillic characters for Ukrainian, | |
42 | Byelorussian, and so on, | |
43 | try ISO-IR-111, or KOI8-U | |
fea681da MK |
44 | (Ukrainian Character Set), or KOI8-C (for ancient Russian texts) |
45 | instead, which are identical to KOI8-R in the Russian Cyrillic letters | |
46 | area. | |
47 | .PP | |
48 | A more complete set of Cyrillic characters is also defined by the | |
49 | ISO-8859-5 character set. | |
